kindly help me with this problem thank you :)    One and More than One option is correct
Arrange these compounds in order of increasing acidity: 2,4-dichlorophenol, phenol, cyclohexanol.
When trans-2-chloro-1-cyclohexanol is treated with a base, cyclohexene oxide is the product. However, when cis-2-chloro-1-cyclohexanol is treated with a base, the product is cyclohexanone A.Write the equation for the reaction between trans-2-chloro-1-cyclohexanol and the base to yield the cyclohexene oxide B.Why doesn’t the cis isomer yield the oxide? C.Write the mechanism for each of the two reactions.
